Jason Sudeikis returned to “Saturday Night Live” in this week’s cold open as an embattled but unfazed Joe Biden. Biden has recently come under fire for his actions towards some women, many of whom have said they felt uncomfortable around Biden.

Biden has since released a video explaining himself, though Sudeikis’ Biden had plenty to learn. He is joined by a team of consultants including cast members Cecily Strong, Kenan Thompson and Kate McKinnon.

Sudeikis’ Biden is introduced to various female voters to practice treating women normally. But Biden fails to learn anything, awkwardly greeting each female voter. When asked if he learned anything from the experience, Biden exclaims “Oh yeah! Well, I mean, no, not really.”

As he explained at the start, “I’m a hugger, a kisser, and a little bit of a sniffer.”

On “Weekend Update,” hosts Michael Che and Colin Jost again highlighted the increasing absurdity of news stories in today’s world after actor Jim Carrey got into a Twitter feud with Benito Mussolini’s granddaughter.

Jost commented, “News at this point is just a string of unrelated words like ‘Elon Musk Releases Harambe Rap’.”

Che joked that the recent college admissions scandal was nothing new and that rich people have always used methods of getting their kids into good schools, like lacrosse.
